https://www.destructoid.com/review-psychonauts-in-the-rhombus-of-ruin-419848.phtmlWhether it's worth playing at that price depends on how into Psychonauts you are and/or how desperate you are for a delightful, well-crafted PSVR game. I'll say this much: as someone who is by no means a superfan, Rhombus of Ruin left me feeling proper excited for Psychonauts 2.
Gamespot 6/10
http://www.gamespot.com/reviews/psychonauts-in-the-rhombus-of-ruin-review/1900-6416621/Rhombus of Ruin adopts a smart approach to VR and executes it with humor and confidence. But it could have been longer and deeper, more challenging and surprising. Like the story, the gameplay is superficially enjoyable but barely has time to develop, and because you'll know all the puzzle solutions by the end, the campaign doesn't offer much replay value.
Attack of the Fanboy 4/5
http://attackofthefanboy.com/reviews/psychonauts-rhombus-ruin-review/Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin isn't a true successor to the first game, that's coming with Psychonauts 2. Instead it serves as a fun side adventure, utilizing PlayStation VR to put players right into the world of the game. It does this well, with the usual excellent writing expected of Double Fine. The point-and-click gameplay is fun, and works well in VR, but the puzzles can and will stump you at some points, causing some extreme frustration. A short game, it is nonetheless worth trying out, especially if you were a fan of the original.

http://www.hardcoregamer.com/2017/02/20/review-psychonauts-in-the-rhombus-of-ruin/247557/Even if our first follow-up to one of the most legendary games ever made is a more relatively small-scale PlayStation VR game, Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin is still an absolute treat indeed, and a must-play for anyone who owns the peripheral. It may be a bit of a quick journey, but the gleefully mad yet beautiful world, fun gameplay, and the return of some truly lovable characters and their witty dialogue makes it a journey you won't forget anytime soon (especially with the final section of the game, which will blow your mind in more than a few ways, pun semi-intended). Welcome back, Raz. We've missed you, and you came back with one damn fine game indeed. Now bring on Psychonauts 2 next year!
Arcade Sushi 8.5
http://arcadesushi.com/psychonauts-in-the-rhombus-of-ruin-review-playstation-4/Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin is an unexpectedly good thing for what is essentially a teaser for Psychonauts 2. It has some great moments and leaves some tasty bread crumbs for what to expect going into Double Fine's much anticipated sequel, but it's also a genuinely enjoyable offering for VR in general. The puzzles are fun, the environments are fantastic to observe and the Psychonauts cast does a great job in bringing the whole thing together with a colorful and amusing bow.

https://techraptor.net/content/psychonauts-rhombus-ruin-reviewWhen I finished Psychonauts, I was rather saddened by the thought that there may never be more. With Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin offering a first look at what's to come, I am now extremely excited for the future. The jump to a VR puzzle game was rather successful, even with its few hitches, and the story should have any fan of the original leaving with the biggest smile on their face. Hopefully, the momentum can continue in the future.

http://digitalchumps.com/psychonauts-rhombus-ruin/New players, too, should find that Rhombus of Ruin accommodates Psychonauts with a comfortable home in virtual reality. Hardly any facet of its composition feels conditional, granting Psychonauts' beloved motif ample room to work through PlayStation VR's intrinsic weaknesses. Interquels, typically a model disposability, don't seem so strained or contrived inside of this peculiar parallelogram.

http://www.cgmagonline.com/reviews/psychonauts-rhombus-ruin-review-disappointing-return/It feels dirty to say ”no" to new Psychonauts, but Rhombus of Ruin is a half-baked attempt at wrapping up the first game's cliffhanger bundled with some monotonous gameplay and too little content for the asking price.
DarkStation 3.5/5
http://www.darkstation.com/reviews/psychonauts-in-the-rhombus-of-ruinPsychonauts Rhombus of Ruin has its feet firmly planted in foundation laid by the first game - as it should. Though it is trapped within a medium that is still trying to find steady feet, Rhombus at least has the heart and spirit of what made Psychonauts so enthralling. It's a fun and delectable morsel designed to satiate the palate until the second game comes out. While it does excite me for Psychonauts 2, it's only because I know that a console game will let Double Fine's imagination soar much higher than the VR platform would let them.

http://www.gameblog.fr/tests/2691-psychonauts-in-the-rhombus-of-ruin-ps4Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin is an entertaining way to wait for Psychonauts 2 and a quite good VR experience. It can be considered too short and too easy, but it's still funny and capable of letting everyone spend some good time with Raz.
